Porsche Event Results
Yeah but like I said we watched the video and when you look at bryan there is no indication for you to go. Thats what pissed the head guys off. Bryan was on the radio and held his hand up signaling stop and not waving the flag to start. If it was a big miscommunication then a simple "I'm sorry I misunderstood the starters signals" would have sufficed but apperently that was not the case. I do not have to speculate.
yeah, i've seen the 555 guy before, and from what i have seen he doesn't do stupid shit, and when your in the car with the adrenaline and whatnot, if someone says anything, you tend to interperet it as go, but i'm not going to take sides as i wasn't there and don't know the story
but either way...my times sucked, but like i said in the other thread, i'm not a straight course guy, i can't get the speed up, i don't know, and i finally figured out afterward where i got my DNFs, i think they could have had a few more pointer cones, but i'm happy with it...o, aside from my car not working now...yeh, that kinda sucks

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

I think I did very good considering this was my first autoX and I never hit a cone and hittin' a 48.035.
Hi Rosko, Thanks for all the photos.
Did you know you came in 3rd? On street tires? Wow!
Excellent job.
I shaved almost another second on my first Fun run.
I was pretty happy with that.
For the 3rd PCA event in a row, a Porsche has left the pavement.
Now I'm going to be disapointed if I don't get to see that everytime.

i was starting... I held my hand up fully open and said '" Hold on we have a worker on the coarse" The whole time the car is being reved -up. Mid sentence he took off. I told Dave that he went on his own. the way i see it the flag didnt wave so there should have been no mis-understanding there. There should really is no excuse for that, i know Ken has been to PCA events before and knows they use a green flag at the line to start cars. That is why i clearly had the flag down by my side and Held my hand up to wide open telling him to chill out for a minute while the coarse worker does his job. i do agree that the situation could have been handled a little bit better by both parties. From what i understand though that wasnt the only ' min-understanding' that happened. I was also told that Ken was getting an attitude during that and in a an instance during group 1.
on another note it was fun day. Great coarse, i felt good that i was kinda up there wiht everyone else wiht my 46.9xx . Didnt get any fun runs in my cra though. took 3 in Josh's ( whiteghost25) subi, it was very different. I was pleasantly suprised with the amount of grip i had on the shitty part of the runway. IM not sure if anyone noticed a little more grip than usual, but i did.
